Khan can take atleast 10 Maidana power shots

Kotelnik is a lot more technical and Paulie is too.
Paulie is damn fast and has good footwork and timing.
Kotelnik has good timing and accuracy.
Maidana has power, and decent pressure, but he aint all that.Comment

I just see Khan getting caught on the break a couple of times. Maidana will get in close, Khan will tie him up and they have a little wresting match, when they have fought out I think this is the point when Khan tends to switch off a little, his hands will be low and he usually goes back in straight lines.
He could even get wobbled in the clinch if the ref doesnt step in, I think it was Willie Limond wasnt it that connected with a hook just behind Khan's ear and sent his legs giddy? I know that was a long time ago but Maidana has the power to hurt him.
I'm not a Khan fan at all, but I reckon Khan will be boxing his head off for 12 rounds. I'm just suggesting possibilities

Willie had like 5 KO's at that point and at SFW. He dropped Khan badly.I just see Khan getting caught on the break a couple of times.

Paulie had like 4 or 5 too and at a bigger weight.
Kotelnik also.
They are both better thasn willie but did not land or hit him.
Khan is not the same fighter, just go and rewatch one of his early fights or even that one.
Now tell me how WIllie would do VS kHAN NOW?
Khan's chin is better at 140 for sure, because the same shot from limond that dropped Khan did not for Kotelnik, Barera and Paulie.Comment

Of course Limond would be destroyed now and I know that he is a totally different fighter but the point i'm making is fighters do get hit in the clinch and I believe Maidana has the power to wing a hook in and rock Khan, his chin just isnt that good, not matter how much you have improved every boxer gets caught by those quick hooks while in a clinch and Khan has proven in the past that he doesnt like getting hit there.Willie had like 5 KO's at that point and at SFW.

Maidana is a much bigger puncher than Willie so I dont believe the jump in weight will help that much in this case. Khan is facing the biggest puncher he ever has and whether you like it or not Maidana can hurt him, I'm not sure if he can catch him but he can hurt him so to say Khan can take 10 of his best punches is a little bit ******.Comment

Yes his chin is not great, but Maidna aint no 1 punch KO guy, he wears you down.Of course Limond would be destroyed now and I know that he is a totally different fighter but the point i'm making is fighters do get hit in the clinch and I believe Maidana has the power to wing a hook in and rock Khan, his chin just isnt that good, not matter how much you have improved every boxer gets caught by those quick hooks while in a clinch and Khan has proven in the past that he doesnt like getting hit there.

He has hit bums with hard shots many times and eventually they break, but not straight away.Comment
